Restricting Access to Your Modem Router
You can use the Advanced Wireless Settings screen to enable or disable the wireless router radio
and the SSID broadcast. From the main menu, select Advanced Wireless Settings to display the
following screen:
• Enable Wireless Router Radio. You can completely turn off the wireless portion of the
modem router. For example, if you use your notebook computer to wirelessly connect to your
modem router, and you take a business trip, you can turn off the wireless portion of the modem
router while you are traveling. Other members of your household who use computers
connected to the modem router via Ethernet cables can still use the modem router. To do this,
clear the Enable Wireless Access Point check box on the Advanced Wireless Settings screen,
and then click Apply.
• Enable SSID Broadcast. Clear this check box to disable broadcast of the SSID, so that only
devices that know the correct SSID can connect. Disabling SSID broadcast nullifies the
wireless network discovery feature of some products such as Windows XP.

Note: The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure
in the modem router. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless
connection to the modem router.
